You've got to love it when "our" attitude comes back to bite. This one makes me laugh and cringe at the same time.

Tim, I'm with you. Not saying Isreal's got anything to really worry about. I'm just fit to be tied over the bullshit rhetoric that comes out of the US and not surprised at all that it comes back in this form. reap, sow...

;) Exactly. It's all just f*#king business for the US anyway. Why make it "personal". Just publish the annual strategic objectives and let the "market" work its magic. We could call it GBay (tm)

Isn't it ironic that the things you stand for, drugs and free love, are today also considered... evil?

Mwuhahaha!

I think the US should conduct a 3 Megaton Nuclear demonstration test in the Iranian desert.

Just wait 10 years. When Israel deconstructs and they all move to Guatamala, these problems in the Middle East will quickly and quietly disappear. In February 1945, Ibin Said told FDR not to let them move there. Why wasn't anyone listening back then? Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!

Funny, when I read the thread title, I laughed to myself and said, "well, if it's that simple then-let's just stop acting evil".

It looks like the coming war with Iran will be much more exciting the Iraq war.

It was Harry Truman who had a soft spot in his head when he recognized Israel in 1949. If FDR hadn't died suddenly in April 1945, you know Israel would have never been misbegotten. Would have saved a lot of US tax payers' money in the long run, too! In 5 or 10 years when memories of the Holocaust fade away (like our collective memories of the Boer War), Israel will lose its raison d'etre and simply disintegrate for lack of a reason to exist.

Let's compare and contrast:

 Israel wants peace with its neighbors. Israel has signed, and honored, several peace-deals with its neighbors. Muslims and Arabs can live and pray, and vote, in Israel freely and openly. 16% of the population of Israel is Muslim. Israel has had nuclear weapons for decades but has never used them against its enemies.

 The Iranian regime has repeatedly made war against Israel through proxy organizations such as Hizb Allah. The destruction of Israel is one of the cornerstones of the current Iranian state. Travel to Israel is a crime in Iran punishable by time in prison. There is no free speech in Iran. Approximately 0.04% of the population of Iran is Jewish. The Iranian regime does not yet have nuclear weapons, probably, but has already stated it desires to use them to destroy Israel.

Is it really so difficult to spot the "bad guy" here?


P.S. People who think that the Joos moved to the middle east in the 1940s make me laugh.
